This study aims to evaluate contamination of water, sediment, vegetation and the uçá-crab by heavy metals in five mangroves of the São Paulo State, and to analyze the genotoxic impact on populations of this crustacean, based on the frequency of micronuclei cells. Mangroves are Permanent Preservation Areas (PPAs) and nurseries for many species, including the uçá-crab, which is widely marke…

Johngarthia lagostoma (H. Milne Edwards, 1837) is a land crab of family Gecarcinidae, endemic to oceanic islands, and considered a key species of great ecological relevance. Currently, its distribution is restricted to four islands in the Atlantic Ocean: Fernando de Noronha, Atol das Rocas, Ascensão, and Trindade. Recent evaluations have indicated the species is under threat of extinction…
The yellow crab Johngarthia lagostoma (H. Milne Edwards, 1837) is a brachyuran crab endemic on oceanic islands, acting as top predator and key species in these environments. Your worldwide distribution is restricted to four islands in Atlantic Ocean: Fernando de Noronha, Atol das Rocas, Ascension and Trindade. At this moment, the fill studies about biology and distribution of J. lagostoma…
Studies on the biology of Ucides cordatus suggest alterations in population parameters due to the variations of abiotic factors, events expected by the climatic changes. Thus, the present study will evaluate the density and population structure of this brachyuran, in function of the tidal flood. The population parameters will be compared spatially (margin vs. apicum) in a mangrove area (S…
